I was diagnosed with parkinson's 2 years ago after having ended up confined to bed in an almost frozen state. Gradually my legs began to losen up after having been on sinemet for several weeks. I am able to walk now and have returned to work living an almost normal life. There is fatigue involved but not from the sinemet. It is related to parkinson's itselft. I would highly recommend this medicine for anyone fighting parkinson's.

I have been taking sinemet for about 10 years for restless leg syndrome. I Had been on other medications but they did not work well for me. Sinemet is fantastic for this purpose and I generally get by with one a night before bed. Sometime it does break through when I travel a lot or am sitting for long periods, but then I adjust to 1 in morning and 1 at night. I can sit without going crazy from the tingling/twitching and no more "epileptic" legs in the evening so I can sleep. My family is happy to not get kicked unexpectedly anymore with the spasms. It has been a lifesaver to me and I have had no side effects from it at all.

My fathers Parkinsons symptoms presented themseves slowly over the years and he was being treated for other conditions. Then grew worse in a matter of a few months. To the point where his dr. and I didn't think he would last more than a month or 2. After starting Sinemet his symptoms improved daily and within a week was 80% or so back to his normal self. That was over 2 years ago. To me this drug is amazing and is a real lifesaver for I still have my father with me.
